PARISC: fix panic on prefetch(NULL) on PA7300LC

2012-06-12T09:59:10+00:00

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1008697

commit b3cb8674811d1851bbf1486a73d62b90c119b994 upstream.

Due to an errata, the PA7300LC generates a TLB miss interruption even on the
prefetch instruction.  This means that prefetch(NULL), which is supposed to be
a nop on linux actually generates a NULL deref fault.  Fix this by testing the
address of prefetch against NULL before doing the prefetch.

fix return type of __atomic64_add_return

2011-08-16T01:31:32+00:00

commit 548c210fbffdb008a80fa41ff0cb3965f185583d upstream.

The return type of __atomic64_add_return of should be s64 or long, not
int.  This fixes the atomic64 test failure that I previously reported.

Fix node_start/end_pfn() definition for mm/page_cgroup.c

2011-06-27T21:13:09+00:00

commit 21a3c96 uses node_start/end_pfn(nid) for detection start/end
of nodes. But, it's not defined in linux/mmzone.h but defined in
/arch/???/include/mmzone.h which is included only under
CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES=y.

Then, we see
  mm/page_cgroup.c: In function 'page_cgroup_init':
  mm/page_cgroup.c:308: error: implicit declaration of function 'node_start_pfn'
  mm/page_cgroup.c:309: error: implicit declaration of function 'node_end_pfn'

So, fixiing page_cgroup.c is an idea...

But node_start_pfn()/node_end_pfn() is a very generic macro and
should be implemented in the same manner for all archs.
(m32r has different implementation...)

This patch removes definitions of node_start/end_pfn() in each archs
and defines a unified one in linux/mmzone.h. It's not under
CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES, now.

A result of macro expansion is here (mm/page_cgroup.c)

for !NUMA
 start_pfn = ((&contig_page_data)->node_start_pfn);
  end_pfn = ({ pg_data_t *__pgdat = (&contig_page_data); __pgdat->node_start_pfn + __pgdat->node_spanned_pages;});

for NUMA (x86-64)
  start_pfn = ((node_data[nid])->node_start_pfn);
  end_pfn = ({ pg_data_t *__pgdat = (node_data[nid]); __pgdat->node_start_pfn + __pgdat->node_spanned_pages;});

Changelog:
 - fixed to avoid using "nid" twice in node_end_pfn() macro.

ns: Wire up the setns system call

2011-05-28T17:48:39+00:00

32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working.  The rest I have looked
at closely and I can't find any problems.

setns is an easy system call to wire up.  It just takes two ints so I
don't expect any weird architecture porting problems.

While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are
very slow to get new system calls.  cris seems to be the slowest where
the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev.  avr32 is weird
in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h.  frv is
behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up.  On h8300
the last system call wired up was epoll_wait.  On m32r the last system
call wired up was fallocate.  mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system
call wired up.  The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was
new in the 2.6.39.

v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano 
v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman 
v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch
v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6
v6: rebased onto parisc-next and net-next to avoid syscall  conflicts.
v7: ported to Linus's latest post 2.6.39 tree.

Remove unused PROC_CHANGE_PENALTY constant

2011-05-25T15:39:43+00:00

This constant hasn't been used since before the git era (2.6.12) and thus
can be dropped.
